Real estate professionals such as property owners, investors, managers, and brokers like to know about the rental market near certain properties.
HotIgloos provides a free tool to generate rental comparisons for any property in the US.
Just visit this link and type in the property address: HotIgloos Free Rental Comps

If you're an owner with a vacancy you might be wondering how much your apartment is worth.
Now you can find out exactly what other apartments like yours are going for. You can also access this tool by adding your listing on HotIgloos.com and clicking on the "Rent Comps" button in your account.
You'll see all the rentals of the same size in the same neighborhood.

Renters can also use the rent comp data to figure out if something is a good deal or not, or to figure out which neighborhoods are affordable for them to live.

Have you ever wondered how many people are looking at your Craigslist ads?
Sometimes you get no calls and you wonder if your ad is really out there.
Or maybe you wonder how you can get more inquiries about your rental.
Posting on certain days and at certain times is much better than others to get maximum exposure.
HotIgloos.com helps you make the most of your Craigslist postings.

You may have seen yesterday's blog post about our new Craigslist layouts to make your ads pretty and easy to manage. Today we offer free tracking of those ads. After you post an ad on Craigslist using the layout provided by HotIgloos, you can log in here and in real time check how many times it's been seen.

HotIgloos.com was at the AOA apartment trade show in Long Beach last Thursday, April 21.
We enjoyed meeting and talking with hundreds of apartment owners, managers, and real estate professionals.

They were thrilled to learn about HotIgloos.com and all our innovative features such as free rent comparison reports, free email alerts, mobile phone apps, student housing searches, location based searches, and map based searches.

If you missed us there or were unable to attend, no worries, you can still signup and take advantage of all our free services.
